I worked for the army's weather modification research unit in the early 70s when I had to be in the army (first year of lottery and only year my number went). Possibly sent there because my degree is in meteorology. Can't speak for the other services, but any significant weather modification was definitely beyond them as was most insignificant stuff.

One thing a miss about the "pre-internet" days of early Art Bell... back then, fact and fiction were much harder to tell apart, at least for me. One simply did not google something to see if it was the truth. Or check snopes. You sort of relied on the people around you. There was a certain feeling, in my mind, that aliens or whatever could have been real - if only there were better lines of communication and the right person were in the right place at the right time with a camera. The show really did feel like one of the few places people could share reports of such things.

And, well, look how that turned out. Instant communication and a high-quality camera in every pocket in the world. So much for the aliens.

RoxtarRyan:I wonder how many of these people believe that this program controls weather, but at the same time say that mankind has no influence on the climate.

That's just what they want you to think! Obama and his cronies are using HAARP to cause droughts in California's Central Valley, thereby destroying jobs and punishing them for supporting Republicans in the state legislature! And once he's proved the technology there, it's only a matter of time before he lays waste to all of the red states! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!

/sadly, about half of that is what Central Valley voters actually believe

This is actually very bad news. The defense has failed and the Earth has been infiltrated. The Mother Ship can now advance. The light drones will arrive soon. Stand on a hill some dark night this summer, and prepare for an alien invasion.

That reminds me, you can sing "Milk milk lemonade around the corner fudge is made" to the tune of Iron Man.

After the past few decades I say let the invasion begin I doubt the aliens can fark up much worse than the last few generations of politicians did

stuffy:Think about all those poor paranoid bloggers the government are putting out of work.

We need to petition Obama.

Putting out of work? seriously?? the HAARP stuff was just about all played out, by closing it down they have effectively rebooted the conspiracy theories, the Art Bells of the world will be able to milk the rumors of it not being shut down but moved underground, taken over by the NSA, etc for another decade at least

/not to mention the rumors about why it actually was shut down/superseded/made redundant........

I was talking replying to you. I'm so filled with rage I forget to hit reply.

I have to agree... Though really it doesn't matter what actually happens anyway. Conspiracy nuts just make up whatever they need to in order to maintain and/or inflate their already crazy hypotheses.

Morchella:Can't speak for the other services, but any significant weather modification was definitely beyond them as was most insignificant stuff.

I imagine mostly traditional cloud seeding with silver iodide, in an effort to either rain on the enemy or prevent rain on yourselves... probably with about as much success as it sees in agriculture...
